$125,000

Located off Chapel Road near Laurel, Indiana in Franklin County, this +/- 10-acre parcel offers a combination of productive tillable ground and wooded acreage with direct road frontage and a flat, usable layout that gives a future owner considerable flexibility in how the land is used. Approximately 8.5 acres of the property is tillable, with productive soils and a level topography visible across the field. The tillable ground occupies the interior of the parcel with the field edge tucking into the northern timber, creating a natural transition between the open ground and the surrounding woods. A wooded buffer along the western boundary provides a degree of separation between the field and Chapel Road. The flat nature of the tillable ground also provides options for a buyer interested in constructing a home or outbuilding on the site, subject to applicable Franklin County zoning and permitting requirements. Heavy timber borders the property on the north. The rounded northern end of the tillable field tucks directly into this northern timber block, creating a nice pinch point where deer transition between the timber and the field. Combined with the large timber tracts bordering the property to the north and south, this layout creates the kind of terrain that tends to hold and stage deer consistently throughout the season. Also due to the heavy surrounding timber, the soybeans attract deer all season long. The current owner has hunted the property and noted great deer activity over the years. The parcel has direct frontage along Chapel Road at the southern boundary, providing straightforward access without the need for an easement or shared drive. The flat terrain and open acreage make site planning for a future home or outbuilding more practical compared to the hillier and more heavily timbered parcels common in this part of Franklin County. There is already a culver installed at the road entrance.

Located near Laurel, Indiana, in Franklin County, this 15.34-acre parcel sits along the Whitewater River and includes wooded recreational acreage and an ideal build site with convenient paved road access. The property includes a shed with a wood stove, providing a functional base for hunting, fishing, or recreational use.There is even a new outhouse system that hasn't been used yet! A built "staircase" launch area along the riverbank accommodates paddlecraft, including kayaks and small johnboats, making the river directly accessible from the property. The Whitewater River in this stretch of Franklin County is a well-regarded recreational waterway, known for fishing opportunities and the scenic character of the surrounding landscape. Approximately 10 acres of the total lie across the river and are accessible on foot during typical late-summer and fall conditions, when water levels are lower, and the river runs shallow. This cross-river acreage adds wooded hunting and recreational ground to the overall property. Wildlife activity along the river corridor is consistent, with deer and other species regularly utilizing the riparian habitat along the banks. Buyers should be aware that a portion of the property falls within the floodplain. There is an approximately 1-acre area near Ott Road that appears to be outside the flood-prone area and may be suitable for a future home or structure, subject to applicable Franklin County zoning, permitting, and floodplain regulations. Buyers are strongly encouraged to conduct independent due diligence regarding flood zone status, build-ability, well and septic feasibility, and any other applicable regulatory requirements. River-frontage properties with this level of direct access are uncommon in Franklin County, and parcels along this stretch of the White River rarely change hands. Nearby towns include Laurel, IN (approx. 1-2 miles), Brookville, IN,(approx. 12 miles)
